"Greetings, Young Lord Julian. Please, take a look at this batch of goods. They are all exceptional! You won't find another like them across a thousand Regions."The one speaking was a tall man with red skin and four eyes that gleamed like polished glass. He wore a robe stitched from the silk of flame worms, his long fingers clutching a tablet filled with data. He was a Slave Merchant."These people are from the Raivorn Tribe," he continued eagerly. "They come from a newly discovered tribe that is said to have the bloodline of the mythical thunder beast, Raion. This tribe was living in a secluded zone of the Thunder Region, and surprisingly, they had never before made contact with the outer world.""Many of their people reached Six Stars and even Seven Stars in their cultivation. Moreover, their leader even broke through to the Nine Stars on his own. This tribe's potential is extraordinary, especially in handling thunder and lightning.""Given that your domain controls dozens of Thund

The Crackling Sky Zone is a renowned resource territory located within the Falling Star Region of the Emerald Bay Domain.All year round, the entire Crackling Sky Zone is engulfed in violent lightning storms, with much of its surface resembling a raging sea of electricity.In such extreme conditions, even Nine Stars Warriors cannot endure for extended periods without adequate supplies.Yet it is precisely this hostile environment that gave rise to an exceptionally rare resource called the Skybolt Crystal Mine.Skybolt Crystals mined from this site are highly valuable, as they can be used to forge Core Weapons or fused with other metals to create D-grade alloys, making them one of the most sought-after ores in the Emerald Bay Domain.Because of its abundant Skybolt Crystals deposits, a single Crackling Sky Zone is worth as much as a dozen zones of equal scale.Such staggering wealth would be irresistible even to Earthen Soul Realm elites.Yet despite the zone's location being publicly

At Mining Station 12, inside a temporary room carved into the canyon wall, Cedric took out everything from the storage ring Old Blue had given him.There was a Tier-3 alloy battle suit, a Tier-3 Blade, and one vial of Tier-3 Awakening Liquid, which Nine Stars warriors can use to attempt to awaken their special ability and officially step into the Awakening Realm.Without a doubt, the most valuable item was the Tier-3 Awakening Liquid.According to what he remembered, weapons and other treasures that can be used by warriors below the Awakening Realm are mainly divided into three tiers. Tier-1 is the lowest, and Tier-3 is the highest rank.Above Tier-3 is Core Rank, which is again divided into Standard Core and Elite Core.Core Rank Treasures are mainly used by Awakening Realm warriors and Earthen Soul Realm warriors."Heh, this Young Master Julian is pretty generous. He's actually willing to give such a good weapon to a small guard like me, who only has the status of a slave. Having a

The moment the exhaustion settled in, a sharp, almost savage hunger erupted from deep within Cedric's body.He felt like every cell of his body was screaming for energy desperately. His limbs felt weak and heavy, as if all strength had been drained away, yet that hunger burned even fiercer than the fatigue. He was dead tired due to all those movements, but the fierce hunger didn't let him stay calm even for a moment.Gritting his teeth, Cedric forced himself to move.Step by step, he dragged his aching body toward a compact nutrient storage unit embedded in the cave wall. It was a piece of standard sci-tech equipment used to preserve high-energy food. His vision wavered slightly, and cold sweat ran down his back, but he didn't stop.Cedric opened the storage unit and grabbed a slender crystal vial. It was a vial of Tier-1 High-Density Energy Fluid.Without hesitation, he pulled the seal and drank it in one gulp.The moment the liquid slid down his throat, it transformed into a warm cu

Cedric slowly started approaching the dim star curiously. As he drew closer, he realized the star wasn't naturally faint; there were actually three strange symbols wrapped around its surface, constantly devouring its light. The starlight that tried to shine was swallowed again and again by the symbols, leaving the star perpetually dim.Cedric's brows knitted as he stared at the symbols. He could not understand these symbols, but they gave him the feeling of being both ominous and sacred. Most importantly, that mysterious attraction grew stronger the nearer he came to the dim star."What are these symbols?"Although Cedric couldn't tell what these symbols represented, he was sure that the call was coming from these symbols, not the star itself.He hesitated for a moment. But it didn't take long for him to make a decision. He let go of his hesitation, trusted his instinct, and reached out before touching the dim star.The moment his hands touched the dim star, he felt as if the cosmic e
