"Thank you." Meng Xingchen said with a smile.
"Yeah." Hargrave also nodded and turned off the video connection.
"Huh..." Babata appeared on Meng Xingchen's shoulder and sneered at the closed screen, "That's it? Isn't Hargrave too arrogant?"
"Normal." Meng Xingchen smiled and didn't say much.
Hargrave and Brolin, one is the father-in-law of the Black Dragon Mountain royal family, and the other is the ninth prince of the empire. Although his status is not low, he is only a star level after all.
For him, as long as it doesn't interfere with his future plans, it's fine.
……
Less than two months later, a large starship from the Virtual Universe Company landed over the Yunxing Star Base.
This starship replenished the Black Dragon Mountain branch with a large amount of needed resources, equipment, supplies, etc., and also delivered SSS-level bloodline evolution agent.
After getting the bloodline evolution agent, Meng Xingchen immediately returned to the manor.
Open the alloy suitcase and inside is a tube of colorful injection.
"This is the Domain Lord-level Bloodline Evolution Agent..." Babata appeared on Meng Xingchen's shoulder and stared at the tube of potion with curiosity. "I have never seen it before, but I have only heard about it from others."
Luo Shen also appeared on the other side, also staring at the bloodline evolution potion.
Under normal circumstances, a life-bearing planet can only produce one or two star-level creatures within a period of time, and a galaxy can produce one or two cosmic-level creatures.
But a tube of this SSS-level bloodline evolution agent is equivalent to directly creating a "domain master" existence.
A Domain Lord level bloodline, even without deliberate cultivation, will surely eventually become a Domain Lord level just by natural growth.
Meng Xingchen first picked up the instruction manual and quickly read through it.
Taking a deep breath, he picked up the bloodline evolution agent.
This tube of colorful medicine is breathtakingly beautiful, but since it is sealed in a special syringe, no scent can be sensed.
Remove the needle cap from the syringe and inject the medicine into the left arm.
As the needle was injected into his arm, Meng Xingchen clearly felt that the power within the evolution agent was like rapidly spreading bacteria, madly attacking the flesh, bones... every cell in the body.
Before the injection was even completed, he already felt excruciating pain.
He endured the pain and injected the entire injection, threw away the syringe, and quickly sat down cross-legged on the ground.
Just a moment later, big drops of sweat rolled down from his head, and his whole body was in pain so much that even his teeth could not help chattering.
"It hurts so much?"
Veins bulged on both sides of Meng Xingchen's temples, and bloodshot soon filled his eyes.
"Xingchen, the instructions say you only need to hold on for about an hour!"
Babata encouraged him.
"Yeah." Meng Xingchen agreed reluctantly and endured it with gritted teeth.
His basic physique is now five times better than that of his peers, but he still can hardly endure the thorough transformation of his body by this Domain Lord-level bloodline evolution agent.
At this moment, he felt as if his entire body was being hammered by countless small hammers, shattering his bones, shattering every cell particle, and then rebuilding them...
ten minutes.
twenty minutes.
After trying hard to sit cross-legged for half an hour, he finally couldn't hold on any longer. His body bent, his head hit the ground, and his whole body was shaking violently.
At this moment, all the skin exposed on his body had turned red, as if it was about to burn.
Finally, after nearly an hour, the severe pain began to gradually ease.
Once the body transformation is completed, the pain will dissipate very quickly.
After just a few tens of seconds, Meng Xingchen fell to the ground again, feeling weak all over, but also extremely comfortable.
At the same time, the residual medicinal power that had been hidden in various parts of the body and that had been enhanced by cramming a large amount of resources was unearthed again by the transformed body and quickly flowed towards the Dantian space.
Without Meng Xingchen's instructions, Luo Shen immediately took out seven or eight Mu Ya crystals and put them to his mouth.
He swallowed two Mu Ya crystals without hesitation, sat down cross-legged again and began to practice.
The power contained in the bloodline evolution agent is extremely enormous. After the body is transformed, the residual medicinal power accumulated in the body will be re-stimulated. This is a good time to practice.
Under normal circumstances, even if ordinary bloodline evolution agents are taken, the star level can be upgraded to a small mirror realm of the first level, or even to the peak of the planetary level, directly crossing the threshold and being promoted to the star level.
In the normal world trajectory, Luo Feng, Hong and Lei Shen joined the external members of the Virtual Universe Company. After each of them purchased an ordinary evolution agent and used it, they all experienced a direct improvement.
Luo Feng's mental power was upgraded from the first level to the second level, the warrior with the Thunder God gene was upgraded from the first level to the second level, and Hong even directly crossed the threshold from the peak of the planetary level to the first level.
……
The latent medicinal power in his body was completely stimulated and absorbed, and after taking four wood crystals, Meng Xingchen's practice finally stopped.
Stellar level six!
Sensing the six blazingly burning miniature stars within the Dantian space, he was also slightly surprised.
Just a tube of domain lord-level bloodline evolution agent allowed him to jump two levels directly from the fourth level of the star level to the sixth level of the star level.
“Hahaha…” Babata laughed excitedly after scanning the changes in Meng Xingchen’s body, “Xingchen Territory Lord, congratulations on your successful leap ahead of schedule and entering the ranks of powerful Territory Lords!”
"Congratulations, Master!" Luo Shen was also very excited.
"...Take a shower first." Meng Xingchen stood up and walked towards the lounge.
The previous pain made him feel extremely uncomfortable with sweat oozing out and quickly evaporating all over his body.
But the improvement is real. He went from the fourth level of star to the sixth level of star and obtained the bloodline of domain lord.
This means that, at least before he breaks through to the realm master, there will be no more realm thresholds.
Under normal circumstances, a galaxy can only give birth to one or two cosmic-level creatures within a period of time, but his case is certainly not normal.
For ethnic groups with domain lord-level bloodlines, it is very common to see domain lords sitting in a row and a large number of world lords on their ancestral planet.
……
After using the Domain Lord bloodline evolution potion, Meng Xingchen continued to practice at the Yunxing Star base.
During this period, he also found time to purchase some necessary equipment and instruments at the Yunxing Star Treasury, as well as a fourth-grade energy weapon called the "Wind and Thunder Spear."
In addition, since funds were still very abundant, he purchased several C9-class small starships as backup.
At the same time, although the current Black Dragon Mountain spacecraft is still a C-class on the surface, it has actually reached the D-class category.
In addition, Babata is also using the huge reserves of various supplies at the Yunxing Star Station to purchase the necessary materials and instruments to continue upgrading the Black Dragon Mountain spacecraft.
The goal is to upgrade most of the functions of the Black Dragon Mountain spacecraft to the D9 level, and even upgrade a small part of the spacecraft configuration to the E level. Originally, Meng Xingchen wanted to directly purchase a D-level spacecraft, but Babata didn't let him.
The Heilongshan spacecraft has undergone many modifications. Even the long-range detection equipment that originally belonged to the Yunmoxing, as well as some other unimportant instruments, have been transferred to the Heilongshan spacecraft.
Therefore, Babata was reluctant to give up this spaceship, and decided to transform the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship into a spaceship more suitable for his own needs according to Meng Xingchen's requirements.
Time passed quickly, and more than three months later, Meng Xingchen got up and rushed to the target planet for this trainee mercenary assessment, "Canglan Star."
The journey took more than two months.
When he arrived at Canglan Star, his realm level had reached the eighth level of the star class!
Domain Lord level bloodline is indeed terrifying.
Just half a year after taking the bloodline evolution agent, he crossed the seventh and eighth level thresholds of the star level, and was not far from the ninth level of the star level.
……
At this time, Canglan Star was already crowded with various starships that could be seen everywhere, and there were crowds of people everywhere. Rows and teams of the Universe Mercenary Alliance law enforcement teams were patrolling in various airspaces.
After barely finding a corner to park the spaceship, Meng Xingchen flew out of the starship and headed towards the atmosphere of Canglan Star.
Canglan Star is also very huge, but the number of people taking the apprentice mercenary assessment is too large.
The entire Black Dragon Mountain star field has more than 8,000 galaxies like the Milky Way, and most of the galaxies have tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of life-bearing planets.
The assessment for apprentice mercenaries is held on Canglan Star, and you can imagine how large the number of people is.
Fortunately, Meng Xingchen had already registered in the virtual universe. After arriving at Canglan Star, he only needed to confirm his identity in numerous offices and receive an adventure card.
After completing all the formalities, Meng Xingchen followed the dense crowd and headed towards the entrance of the examination site.
As he walked, his appearance and height underwent some imperceptible changes.
After walking a few dozen kilometers, he had turned into a middle-aged man who was about ten centimeters shorter, with a strong build and looked like he was in his forties.
At the same time, a treasure also concealed his aura.
And no one who passed by him along the way could really notice it.
Bone shrinking and shape-changing technique.
This secret technique can change very quickly or very slowly.
As large groups of people passed by, no one noticed that the middle-aged man walking by them actually looked like a young man.
It took Meng Xingchen several hours to finally reach the queue area.
Compared with the scene in his memory, the entrance to the assessment site was now much more orderly.
None of the people sent by the two holy bodies, four major organizations, and sixteen families of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire to participate in the assessment dared to drop the geniuses under their command from the air near the entrance of the flying knife assessment site.
All of this happened because a female domain lord wearing silver-white armor and with long silver-white hair was standing on top of a fortress above the assessment site, staring with her eyes wide open, looking down.
"This Lady Qinia is so amazing! When she comes here, no one dares to disobey the rules!"
"Hehe... Previously, a starship from the Hundred Tigers Tower flew over the assessment site, and Lady Qinia whipped it, almost cutting the starship in half!"
"Hahahaha... Baihulou is used to being so arrogant, and they want to show off again this time?"
"Keep your voice down. There might be people from Baihu Tower here."
……
Around him, a large number of star-level participants in the assessment were whispering and discussing.
Meng Xingchen couldn't help but look up at the fortress in the distance.
The Lord of Qinia Territory was wearing a silver battle armor, with long silver-white hair, and had a cold face, which gave him a rather cool and elegant temperament.
"Speaking of which, this time it's also strange. The Ninth Prince of the Empire, His Royal Highness Brolin, actually brought 20 star-level soldiers to participate in this trainee mercenary assessment! What are they going to do?"
At this moment, the whispered conversation of two star-level people in the distance reached Meng Xingchen's ears again.
"Don't talk nonsense..." another person said hurriedly, "The royal family and the Black Dragon Mountain Holy Land just have more people under their command, why do you care how many people they want to attend?" Another person hurriedly stopped him from talking nonsense.
Meng Xingchen also raised his eyes and looked towards the front of the team.
For this mercenary assessment, the army under the command of the Ninth Prince Brolin arrived at the venue early and occupied the front position.
However, unlike what Meng Xingchen had heard before, Brolin brought 20 people this time!
……
More than two days later, the entrance to the assessment site was finally officially opened.
After the team led by the Ninth Prince, including Meng Xingchen, entered, they took out a large felt hat and put it on, then slowly withdrew their bone-shrinking and shape-changing techniques, as well as the treasures that concealed their auras.
Several star-level warriors around him saw his strange behavior, but they just glanced at him and immediately looked away.
Those who take part in the cosmic mercenary assessment come from all kinds of backgrounds. Those who hide their appearance and aura like this are most likely ruthless characters with many enemies, so it's best not to provoke them.
After being scanned by multiple instruments, Meng Xingchen entered the assessment site.
Just as he remembered, the entrance to the "Thunder World" was a villa. When a room on the second floor of the villa was opened, colorful lights were immediately released, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.
As Meng Xingchen stepped into the room, he suddenly felt his feet go empty.
……
In the world of thunder, under the strong pull of gravity, Meng Xingchen, who appeared in a void, couldn't help but fall suddenly.
"call……"
The eight microscopic stars in the body were rotating, offsetting the strangely powerful gravity and keeping him afloat again.
"Xingchen, according to the map we bought, our location is still a long way from the core of the Thunder World, the 'Wind and Thunder Canyon'. But at your speed, you can get there in less than half a month..."
Babata quickly scanned the surroundings and reported to Meng Xingchen through his thoughts.
"Yeah." Meng Xingchen nodded and flew quickly in one direction.
The diameter of Canglan Star itself is about 3 kilometers, but above Canglan Star, there is a "Thunder World" hidden in just a room of a villa, with a diameter of more than one million kilometers.
One sand, one world.
The existence of the world master can create an extremely large and stable world.
The target of this trainee mercenary assessment mission is the Wind Horn Stone in the "Wind and Thunder Canyon" and the tail of a unicorn.
The one-horned iron rhinoceros is a ferocious beast unique to the Thunder World and can be found everywhere.
But the "Wind Corner Stone" is only produced in Fenglei Canyon. (End of this chapter)
