Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation      Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

During this period, countless living beings descended onto Blue Star from the starry sky.

After careful selection and potential index testing, the Demon Alliance members had expanded from more than a hundred stars to more than ten thousand stars.

Those with a potential index of less than 1,000 stars wouldn’t be accepted. After they joined the Demon Alliance, under the Empire’s potential index cultivation techniques and resources, the Demon Alliance’s 10,000 members all had potential indexes of around 2,000 stars.

The members with 2,000 stars had all fused with the Blue Star Empire’s 9-layered Emperor Divine Runes, and their overall strength was extremely formidable.

Back then, the empire had left behind many divine items that could increase one’s potential index, as well as top-notch cultivation techniques.

During this time, Taotie and Chimei Wangliang had cultivated to a potential index of 3,800 stars. They had fused with the Crimson Sky Emperor and the Heavenly Shadow Emperor Divine Runes, which were the best in the empire and were on the same level as the White Emperor and Mystic Fairy Divine Runes.

As for Wu Rui and Zhao Feng, they had both cultivated to 3,300 stars, and they fused with the weaker Heavenly River and Spiritual Wind Divine Runes.

Wang Rong and Tuan Tuan only had 2,900 stars, so they could only absorb the Blue Star Empire’s 12-layered Azure Phoenix and Luan Phoenix Divine Runes.

Vermilion Bird and Zhang Hu’s potential index had reached 4,900 stars. Just a few days ago, they had used the Blue Star Empire’s traction device to remove the Mystic Fairy and White Emperor Divine Runes from their bodies.

Then, they merged with the empire’s 12-star Battle Emperors’ divine runes, the 22-layer Saintly Emperor Divine Rune as well as the Celestial Phoenix Divine Rune.

Now, the two of them were the Demon Alliance’s strongest pair.

Actually, they weren’t the strongest.

Menglan was currently the strongest member. It had narrowly escaped death and successfully absorbed Wu Xu’s, one of the empire’s nine Guardian Divine Beasts, 30-layer Volatile Sky Emperor Divine Rune.

However, Menglan had been listless recently, perhaps because it couldn’t see Gu Changqing.

He didn’t even want to leave the house, eating crystal cores all day to cultivate.

During this month, the central city’S nine divisions had become lively.

All of the Nine Region Empire’s scientific personnel were now gathered in the empire’s research institutes to study and familiarize themselves with the empire’s technology.

Xuanyuan Wangrui and the others were now responsible for moving the Nine Region Empire’s people into the central city in batches.

In this month, more than 200 million people had been transferred in.

Therefore, the current central city was no longer as lifeless as before.

The nine divisions were bustling with activity. There was an endless stream of pedestrians on the streets. Many shops, hotels, restaurants, and other places were open for business.

In addition, M Country had also moved in. They had brought over all the resources they got from Division 4.

Besides that, other countries were applying to enter the central city.

However, Wu Rui temporarily threw them aside, especially the ones from S, F, and E Countries. He didn’t even look at them.

The current Blue Star was filled with extraterrestrial creatures.

Among the universe’s top ten clans, many of them were at tier-20 with more than 20 layers of divine rune armor.

However, at this stage, only those around tier-20 were allowed to come down.

A week ago, Blue Star’s first sealed space was opened. Countless creatures from outer space swarmed in and fought for all l•dnds of divine fruits, divine medicines, and natural treasures.

Not only did they have to guard against Divine Runemasters, but they also had to guard against powerful mutated beasts.

Although there were many dangers, there were also countless opportunities.

In just a week, many Divine Runemasters had obtained Divine Fruits that were hard to find in the starry sky.

There were also the Reverse Latent Divine Fruits that could increase one’s potential index, as well as many other heavenly resources that could evolve one’s divine runes.

Zhang Hu, Wu Rui, Chimei Wangliang, Tuan Tuan, Taotie, Vermilion Bird, Zhao Feng, Wang Rong, and the others were all inside.

On the other hand, Menglan was guarding the base. Whoever dared to act rashly would be courting death.

Nine Region Empire, in the Western Desert.

This place used to be a boundless desert, but now it was covered in endless fog. An enormous blue-white vortex floated in the sky.

From this huge vortex, one could occasionally see Divine Runemasters flying away, afraid of being robbed.

At other times, groups of two or three Divine Runemasters could be seen walking in.

The space inside the seal was completely different from the outside.

The vast primitive mountain range looked like a dragon or a snake circling the world.

The air that contained high-grade energy particles made one’s pores relax.

Ancient trees that covered the sky extended to the clouds. Mutated plants enveloped the mountains and plains, engulfing the entire stratosphere.

Boom! Boom!

In the sky above, Tuan Tuan, who was wearing tier-18 Luan Phoenix armor, was being chased by a tier-21 Iron-armored eagle.

Each time it spread its wings, it was like wind blasting angrily.

The long howl that came out from its mouth could pierce through gold and crack rocks, and could even shatter the eardrums of low-level Divine Runemasters.

Tuan Tuan had just snatched three Divine Fruits from its mouth, but it had been chasing her for half an hour, unwilling to let her go.

The Divine Fruit was a type of fruit that could evolve one’s divine rune. Every single one of them was sold at an astronomical price on the Supreme Divine Platform.

“Brother Zhang, come and save me. I’m being targeted by a tier-21 Iron-armored eagle, and I can’t escape!”

Seeing that the eagle was getting closer, Tuan Tuan had no choice but to contact Zhang Hu as she realized she had no way out.

“Ask the others to help. I can’t leave now either. I’m fighting with a person from the Blaze Emperor Clan for a Dawn Flower.”

“This flower might be able to save Boss, whose corpse hasn’t rotted. No matter what price I have to pay, I must get this flower.”

Zhang Hu’S voice rang out along with the sounds of battle.

Almost all of the ten great clans in the universe had sent down one or two people in divine rune armor above tier 20.

To be able to become one of the ten strongest clans in the starry sky, their foundational strength must become immeasurable.

Moreover, from the Blue Star Empire’s self-sealing until now, their divine rune fusion technology had never stopped advancing.

There were divine runes that had 34 layers, and even 36. However, it was hard to say if any living beings could fuse with it.

However, the Blue Star Empire’s technology was still stuck in the past. Its innovation could’ve already been surpassed.

“Good! Brother Zhang, please be careful. I’ll contact Sister Vermilion Bird to ask.”

Boom!

Just as Tuan Tuan was about to contact Vermilion Bird, a dazzling sword light suddenly flashed across the sky and chopped off the Iron-armed eagle’s huge head.

“Who is it?”

Seeing this, she looked in the direction where the sword light had come from.

It was a man wearing Radiant Light Sword armor. His aura was majestic and sharp, and he was unfathomable.

“Are you the Demon Alliance’s Tuan Tuan?”

The other party revealed a teasing look as he stared at her playfully and said, “Is Gu Changqing really dead? Otherwise, with his personality, he wouldn’t be hiding at this time.”

Hearing this voice, Tuan Tuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Are you Bai Xing? Why are you still alive?” She couldn’t believe that this person was still alive.

“I did die once,” he said with a cold smile. “And it was a tragic death. But now that I’ve resurrected, since Gu Changqing is already dead, let me send you all down to see him one by one!”

It had been a whole month since they last saw Gu Changqing. Most Divine Runemasters suspected that he had really died.

After this was discovered, humans lived in fear throughout this whole period. Many people were killed for no reason.

A few days ago, hundreds of thousands of people in a small town were massacred.

Zhang Hu later found the three culprits using the main computer. At that time, they were chopped into meat paste on a live stream.

“Ha! Just who do you think is our boss? If none of you are dead, then he can’t die either. If you have the ability, come and kill me. You won’t be able to live for more than an hour!”

Tuan Tuan laughed mockingly, not showing any signs of panic as she signaled for the other party to kill her.

“Stop lying to yourself. If he isn’t dead, then why hasn’t he appeared yet?” Bai Xing sneered, still probing.

To tell the truth, his fear of Gu Changqing was engraved deep into his bones.

Tuan Tuan mocked, “Heh! Does Boss need to waste his time dealing with ants like you? Aren’t you thinking too highly of yourself?”

After saying that, she turned around and left. Her figure did not show any signs of panic, and she even looked leisurely.

Bai Xing’s eyes flickered. He didn’t make a move until she disappeared from his sight.

From Tuan Tuan’s tone, he couldn’t see any hint that Gu Changqing was dead, so he didn’t dare to act rashly.

If he could hear any hint of panic in her tone, he wouldn’t have let her leave alive.

After Tuan Tuan left, the woman from the Xuanling Clan appeared.

“You’re still afraid?” she asked calmly.

Bai Xing’s eyes flickered as he said in a deep voice, “Aren’t you afraid of the man with a 10,000-star potential index?”

“If he’S still alive and I kill this woman, I won’t be able to live for more than an hour.” He wasn’t the only one who was afraid. All the creatures in the outer realms were afraid as well.

If he came out wearing Divine Abyss Emperor armor, who could stop him?

If the gods were in his way, he would kill them, and if Buddha wanted him dead, he would kill Buddha as well.

“You’re my clan’s chosen one. It’s right not to take the risk. There’s a lot of room left for growth in this 26-layered Radiant Light Sword armor.”

“I’ve discovered a few Imperial Tower Vines,” the woman said indifferently. “Come with me and kill them!”

Bai Xing nodded and left.

Blue Star had only unlocked one sealed space, but many Divine Runemasters had already earned a lot of money.

It had almost become the place with the greatest opportunities in the entire universe.

Even now, many creatures from outer realms were still coming down endlessly.

Core city, in the 600th floor’s main office, no one was around. Everyone had gone to the sealed space to look for opportunities.

On the soft bed in the bedroom, Gu Changqing’s face was pale like a corpse.

However, there were no signs of decay.

At this moment, the mysterious mark on his palm suddenly emitted strands of strange power that circulated throughout his body. Soon, Gu Changqing’s pale skin gradually became rosy.

In just a few seconds, not only did blood recirculate in his skin, but boundless vitality also spread from the depths of his body.

Gradually, he began to recover his breathing, and streams of terrifying aura spread out from within him.

Even without dividend rune armor, the aura he exuded was even more terrifying than the full power of a tier-15 or tier-16 Divine Runemaster.

A moment later, Gu Changqing’s right hand moved.

Then, he slowly opened his eyes which were as deep as an abyss, as if they could devour one’s soul.

He looked around the bedroom and examined his own condition.

There was no expression on his majestic face as he muttered to himself, “I’ve finally pulled through!”

Not long after his consciousness drifted into the empty abyss, a gray-white light kept guiding him along the way.

There was no doubt that the light came from the mysterious mark on his palm.
